Josh Pincus just wrote me to point out the CD Cover meme over at Flickr. The rules are this:
Always wanted to be in a rock band?
Well, here's your chance...sort of. Make your own CD Cover with the following steps and rocket yourself to mulit-platinum status and start fending off the groupies.
1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
2. www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4. ???
5. Profit
Josh also pointed out his own designs based on this method. Hopefully he'll link to them in his illustration post for this topic. :)
Remember! You can do the above for inspiration but we want to see your art here! Have fun!
This week's challenge is to design a CD cover for your favorite musician or group, or make up your own fantasy group.
